What is Dropshipping? |
ANSWER
Dropshipping is a process of selling products without
having to stock any products yourself. You would sell
the merchandise at a cost you determine. After the customer
pays you for the item, you would pay the supplier their
price and send them your customer's details. The supplier
will ship the product out to the customer, and the difference
between your price and the suppliers' price will be
your profit, all to keep!

How Does Dropshipping Actually Work? |
ANSWER
Let's say you purchase an item
from a dropshipping site for $20.00. You would sell that
item for a price determined by you, let's use $35.00 plus
$4.50 shipping for an example. After you collect the total
payment of $39.50 from the customer and their mailing
address, you would forward the $20.00 plus $4.50 for shipping
to the dropshipper, and keep the $15.00 as profit, never
having to touch the product, as the dropshipper ships
it out to the customer.
This type of arrangement is extremely
beneficial to both the dropshipper and you. The dropshipper
does not have to open a storefront or hire sales people
to sell their products, and you do not have to invest
cash in buying stock.
You have a way to earn extra money,
having no start-up cost, no overheads, no packaging
costs and headaches, and can create an extremely beneficial
relationship with the supplier.

What are the Advantages of Working with Dropship Companies? |
ANSWER
Working with dropship companies gives you all these
advantages:
• The dropshippers research
for products and provide you with their lists/catalogues
of available items at trade prices - You can sell any
of these items by any method you wish.
• The dropshippers act on your order - Only when
you sell and get paid, you ask the dropshippers to fulfil
your order
• The dropshippers package your orders - You never
have to pack an item again
• The dropshippers send your orders out direct
to your customer - You never have to visit the Post
Office again
• The dropshippers are transparent to your customer
- As far as your customer is concerned his/her purchase
has come direct from you
• The dropshippers hold all the stock - You never
hold any stock, and therefore do not have any cash tied
up in stock investment.
• All you have to do is concentrate on sales and
marketing - and banking your money!

What makes Aid and Trade different to other directories available on the net? |
ANSWER
Aid and
Trade is a service where members can access our directories
online - and our directories are updated regularly on a daily
basis!
Being an online service means that
you can access our directory from any PC anywhere in
the world! Most of the other directories appear to be
eBooks or hard-copy publications that can become outdated
very quickly. With our dedicated service, not only will
you get access to all updates as and when they occur,
but you will also benefit from other resources and very
frequent updates at no further cost to you.
Aid and Trade directories are only
available here! Unlike our competitors we don't offer
reprint or resale rights. This way, we can protect the
content and quality of the information we provide to
our customer base. Customers and webmasters of other
online businesses can, of course, become affiliates
- however our directory is only available on this site.
Additionally we give our customers an option
of searching through our database through our preview section
prior to signing-up with us. By doing so people can get a
really good feel of what they can expect from our directory
and whether the kind of dropshippers they are looking for
are actually available in our directory or not. This will
not only result in your investment being safe and sound but
we have also negated the possibility of any disappointmen.
Through our preview directories you would know what you would
be getting in our actual members directory.
We also provide complete support
to our members and try to answer their queries to the best
of our knowledge. Our members will always get a reply from
us whether we know the answer to their query or not.
Unlike other directories and portals, we do not simply provide
you with only simple listings of dropshippers , in fact we
have gone many steps further and have fully categorized our
directory to provide our memebers acess to dropshippers from
various regions of the world. Additionally we have listed
dropshippers in our directory in accordance with their product
lines, so a dropshipper dealing in clothes and toys will not
only appear in the clothes sub-category as is the case with
most other directories thus minimizing your chances of success.
In our directory the dropshipper will appear under both the
categories thus making your search a very simple and a pleasant
experience.
Along with the dropshippers listing , we also provide our
members with the actual products listing of each dropshipper.
Our deidcated data entry staff is always working round the
clock to add new products and offers to our directory and
we can assure you that no other directory goes to this length
for their members. Our customer service is next to best if
not the best and we always respond to all queries.
